Question

Find the greatest common factor (GCF) of 12x and 18x3.

Answer 1

6x

Explanation:

12x and 18x3

first, simplify 18x3

12x and 54x

Now, cancel the x, we'll add it on in the end

12 and 54

Factor it!

(2 * 3 * 2) and (2 * 3 * 3 * 3)

2 and 3 remain common, so multiply = 6

Add on x from before.

6x is the answer.
